Vinyl LP pressing. 2014 release from the Ann Arbor-based Funk/Soul band. Recorded in Detroit with the full band in one room, a minimum amount of effects, processing, microphones and mixed by much respected Funk producer Nate Goldenton, WEST GRAND BOULEVARD is the follow-up to their self-titled 2012 album. Detroit is a city of music and muscle, and this is the sound it makes when it flexes. Every track on the album is inspired by the sights, sounds, smells and history of the city. Funky instrumentals range from gas-guzzling burners to high strutting cruisers. Looking to present this history lesson/house party in a raw and real manner, the group enlisted engineer Jim Roll and Goldenton to capture the music in the most authentic (and these days, difficult) way possible. This is how Detroit did it in the '60s and '70s, so get to work on that time machine, or just let the Third Coast Kings take you on a vintage tour of WEST GRAND BOULEVARD.
